Naming things is hard sometimes! Now, was it that, was it the owner's life view...

Maybe recumbents are entirely too scary.

I think that makes sense. Similar to other waterfall signs in the Wikicommons. Plus, I found this: https://967theeagle.net/the-wisconsin-waterfall-loop-2-5-hours-7-waterfalls-details/

We’ve been running into a lot of construction, also. It’s a pain. This morning at breakfast, the breakfast room was filled with construction workers first thing. It was like locusts hit!

Might be hoary verbena.

Chuckle!
Kind of like I do with dandelion blossoms for a tasty nibble, avoiding the bitter of the green.

I wondered if they were a type of thistle. The leaves are prickly like thistles. The blossoms are purple, but not as big as the thistles around home. When I was a little girl, I had a Shetland pony that loved to eat purple thistles. Bessy would pull her lips back (so as not to prick them?), and would oh, so delicately bite the blossom off.

Which tour was there? I remember on the Arizona tour, you guys were all bundled up and leaving early, when I urged you to wait until it warmed up.
Remember leaving Cedaredge so early that we had to hang out at Arby's in Montrose for hours, until our rooms were ready?

Glad to hear you had such a good day! I was worried about you after your tough ride to Presque Isle.

Yep, you and Oren demanded an early 7 am start! So I had to hurry as well. How come we couldn’t have patterned this ride and have started later as well?

We had the same surprise about the dogs. We didn’t have even a minor dog encounter across Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan and Ohio. We’re starting to see a few in NY, but with one exception nothing to be at all concerned about. The same is true for insects. No mozzies, no black flies. Much better than we expected.

Your burning question is a good one. I've never seen a rutabaga crop either. I'm guessing they can be grown anywhere cabbages or potatoes are grown. In England and many other places, they call rutabaga "Swede." It's a terrible tasting vegetable, except when it's inside of a pasty.
